Tom Jones asks: What support do you guys get from the government currently? Are you likely to get more support from the new regime

Thanks for the question – there are two types of support, financial and non financial. While we currently don’t receive any funding from government, (in the past we have received lottery funding specific projects and projects such as the Change 4 Life project) they are keen to engage with us. We've been building up a strong relationship the new Government, our Chief Executive met with Andrew Lansley last night for a meeting. We are also taking part in the meetings between Government, Charity Sector and Industry to establish the new Responsibility Deal.
